Summary

Minimal Invasive Extracorporeal Circulation’s (MiECC) unique characteristics include advances such as closed circuits with elimination of blood-air interaction, reduced hemodilution, biocompatible surfaces, and lack of scavenging and reinfusion of unprocessed shed blood. Contemporary hybrid (modular) systems allow perfusionists to safely employ MiECC in the full-spectrum cardiac surgery. MiECC provides the base for developing a multidisciplinary intraoperative strategy which encompasses a surgeon’s particular technique, goal-directed perfusion, as well as modified heparin/protamine management. As with traditional ECC techniques, MiECC requires close collaboration of surgical, anesthesiology and perfusion colleagues for optimal outcome.
